The holidays are supposed to be a time of togetherness, tradition, and merriment.
From cozy nights to festive parties, this could be the happiest time of the year.
But, if you are struggling with an eating disorder, this time of year can feel stressful and isolating.
An eating disorder can leave you feeling hopeless and disconnected. And with the holiday season fast approaching, you might be feeling even more anxiety and apprehension.
Any changes in routine can feel destabilizing and triggering. Pressure from work, familial responsibilities, and social events in the wintertime can be overwhelming.
It’s normal for your struggles with food and body to amplify.
For many, winter means an escalation of symptoms due to seasonal depression, an abundance of food, stress, cold weather, less sunlight, and family dynamics.
For students, the adjustment from a college setting to a home environment can be difficult.
Navigating family dynamics, schedule changes, and being away from your school community often puts a strain on your relationship with food and body.
But this year could be different.

Whether stepping down from a higher level of care, such as residential, or for those in need of extra support, PHP can be a life-changing opportunity to start or maintain recovery from an eating disorder.
You can start the process today by booking an intake. Our Master’s-level Admissions Therapists will walk you through the intake process and schedule follow-ups, and recommend the best next steps for you.
Many BALANCE clients choose to take advantage of our efficacious outpatient treatment options. Each of our BALANCE programs can be utilized as a stand-alone treatment or as part of a holistic and integrative treatment plan.
To best support lasting recovery, we recommend that clients step down through our levels of care in sequential steps. At BALANCE, clients can move from our PHP into our IOP program and then, as behaviors become less and less frequent, to the Saturday program.
After completing these more intensive programmatic steps, our clients can continue with individual services, providing a seamless continuum of care.
Research tells us the best outcomes are achieved by moving through our sequential Continuum of Care.
